Watch this video about our new book Success is Assured. The book teaches how to consistently satisfy your customers on-time and on-budget by optimizing decisions collaboratively using reusable visual models. It gives your management team a compass for guiding their initiatives and decision-making; it gives your engineers the tools and skills needed to accelerate their learning and problem-solving and optimize their decision-making; and it provides real-world examples, including one of significant complexity (collaboration between the Navy, an aircraft company, a jet engine company, and an infrared detector company on the mission design of an unmanned aircraft) along with a detailed case study of Pratt & Whitney.
